2016-06-04 Foxboro Against Diabetes 5k Foxboro, MA 5K 19:34 6:18 34/848 M 40-49 7/66 Due to the inclusion of this race into NE Runner's Pub Series this year, it was much more competitive (especially for the masters + age groups) than previous years! Always a well-run event. AG Score: 73.68
2016-05-22 Military Peer Support Program 5k Milford, MA 5K 19:34 6:18 8/73 M 40-49 2/7 Just noticed that my last two road 5k times were identical (to the second!) This is the 4th year I've run this race, and they have an AWESOME post-race BBQ (which makes up a bit for the very slow award ceremony process!) Great having so many TVFR folks there this year, too! AG Score: 73.68
2016-05-07 Elks Care, Elks Share 5k Franklin, MA 5K 19:23 6:14 3/173 M 40-49 1/22 TVFR came away with the TEAM victory at this race, and we all enjoyed the post-race pancakes! AG Score: 74.38
2016-04-24 James Joyce Ramble - USATF National Masters 10K Championship Dedham, MA 10K 40:14 6:28 70/197 M45-49 Just missed my goal time of 40 min (thanks to the hills through the race's mid-point), but had a great time at the post-race celebration (unlimited beer didn't hurt!) Would love to have a full TVFR masters men's team together for next year, if they hold the championships here again.

Larry Olsen (who was 60 at the time), bounced back from a defeat in a 5k earlier in the season to kick my ass at this longer distance. I remember it being cold, with some light snow at race time.

1990-10-21 1st Downtown 5k Providence, RI 5K 16:10 5:12 57/3600 My most distinct memories of this race were when Bill Rogers and Lynn Jennings passed by me in the third mile, both of whom sounded like they were truly in agony - which made me start to think I was doing this whole running thing wrong! 21 year old AGE GRADED PERFORMANCE: 80.31
1990-10-13 Reading Journey for Sight  Reading, MA 5M 27:35 5:31 11/300 M19-29 Lifetime best 5 mile. 21 Year-old age graded score: 77.28

1985-09-02 Walpole Road Race Walpole, MA 10K 34:15 5:31 26/366 High School 2 Course in those days MAY have been a tad short, as it was not certified, but this remains my personal best at 10K to this day! 16 year old age graded score: 79.61

1985-07-27 Run for the Library Osterville, MA 4.12M 22:28 5:27 9/250 M13-18 1 Odd distance race - today a more standard 5k event. 16 year old age graded score (based on 4 mile run at race average pace) = 79.13%
1985-06-23 Chatham Harbor Run Chatham, MA 10K 35:55 5:47 28/550 M13-18 2 This race is still being run, so I may have to revisit it at some point. Lost the teen age group division to Footlocker National XC Finalist of Falmouth 16 year old Age Graded Score; 75.92

1984-10-21 Pace for FACE Walpole, MA 10K 43:39 7:01 27/70 M0-18 6 Ran this "race" as a light easy run, as it was the day before a large cross country state meet. 15 year old AGE GRADED SCORE: 65.10

1984-09-29 Tom Lynch Autumn Road Race Hyannis, MA 5.3M 30:03 5:40 14/200 M0-16 1 Odd distance race. Remember winning a fleece sweat jacket that I treasured!

1984-09-09 Main Street Mile Falmouth, MA 1M 4:54 4:54 24/379 0-18 5 Rare road mile along downtown Falmouth. Finishing time of 4:54.3 Probably did this without letting my XC coach know, as it probably would have been frowned upon during our season. 15 year old AGE GRADED SCORE: 81.62
1984-09-03 Walpole Road Race Walpole, MA 10K 37:28 6:02 58/319 High School 6 Back when there was only ONE distance option for this race. This was pretty much a MANDITORY race for the high school cross country team. 15 year old AGE GRADED SCORE: 73.84

1984-07-28 Run for the Library Osterville, MA 4.12M 24:50 6:02 21/300 M15-18 4 Odd distance race that is still being held (but over a much more standard 5k course!) - I may try and get back there someday! Stunning views of Osterville Bay along the shore roads. 15 year old Age Graded score for 4 miles at average race pace: 72.51%
1984-06-17 Chatham Harbor Run Chatham, MA 10K 38:34 6:12 64/750 13-19 6 Gorgeous course along the shore - remember them using a cannon to start the race (not many races get away with that anymore!) and running through the smoke at the starting line. 15 year old AGE GRADED SCORE: 71.74
1984-05-27 Johnny Kelly Great Hyannis Road Race Hyannis, MA 13.1M 1:28:18 6:44 102/525 M0-19 3 My first, and to-date ONLY half marathon, just after I turned 15. Ran the race in a cut-off cotton tee shirt and wearing Kanga-ROOS sneakers (the shoes with pockets!). Hadn't run any distance over 6 miles, but that didn't stop me. Took it easy through 10 miles, and busted my butt over the last 3+. There's a race picture out there somewhere that I've got to track down! AGE GRADED SCORE: 68.48
1983-10-16 Pace for FACE Walpole, MA 10K 39:57 6:26 10/25 M0-16 4 First 10k road race at age 14 - not a certified course, nor were Garmins a thing, so distance is in question - AGE GRADED SCORE: 70.59
1983-09-25 Walpole Youth Road Race Walpole, MA 3M 18:17 6:06 6/16 Youth 6/16 My first road race at the tender age of 14 during the Fall of my freshman year in high school (and my first cross country season)- without Garmins to track us, race distance may have been off by a ways.
